That beautiful cake. Personally, I think that guy in the hat is more beautiful.

The Bachelorette Party
















The crazy gals I work with planned a fun night with many surprises. First something to eat at Blue Moon in West Glen. Opening presents was very entertaining and embarrassing. The table of 6 sitting next to us had a good time checking out the gifts. After presents we attempted to find/or do all the things listed on the scavenger hunt list. Some items listed were... get a free drink, ask someone to marry you, get a pair of underwear, get a condom, get a piggy back ride, wear your bra on the outside of your shirt, etc. We sure had fun with that. After Blue Moon had had enough of us, we went to Uncle Buck's where the mechanical bull was waiting to give me a ride. Yes it was an experience.

The Wedding


4:30 Saturday Aug. 29, 2009 the pontoon boat heads for the Martin's Point on the west side of Big Creek State Park. On board are Bob Schaut, Susan Roewe, Pastor Dennis Easton, Leona Martin, Loretta Schaut, Taylor & Miranda Roewe, Heston Roewe, Rob Schaut, Greg Newcomer, and Captain Gale Goranson & his wife Maureen.


After a beautiful wedding ceremony on the boat, Bob & Susan Schaut exit the boat at the west side boat ramp with all the others. We all ascend the hill to Jolly Boat Shelter house for the reception. A beautiful 4 tier cake awaits. The cake was made by my co - worker Kristin Petersen. Yummy butter mints were made by co - worker Susan Lutz. Ryan Companies hires such created & talented people.

Susie's Big King Salmon on Lake Michigan caught on July 29th. It was so much fun.

Thanks to Gale for cleaning it.
